Chapter 104 Encounter with the National Teacher
Du Jie was also happy when he saw this person: "Er Dezi, I looked like you from afar, but I didn't expect it was really you. What's the matter, we haven't seen each other in the past three years, and now you have become a pioneer? Get up."
The man called Er Dezi was even more happy when he saw that Du Jie had not forgotten him: "I haven't learned from the young marshal before. Young marshal, let's go back to the camp."
Du Jie nodded and was about to take a step when he saw the old man on the bullock cart. "Er Dezi, this old man came here to look for his son. He was frightened before. You put him down. Wait until he wakes up."
When Er Dezi heard the call, he called his men and pulled the ox cart and the old man into the military camp.
The two of them walked forward along the road. At this time, the military camp tent was raised high. Although it was not dark yet, the lights inside the tent were bright. Er Dezi brought Du Jie to the tent and said apologetically: "Young Marshal,
You wait here for a moment, I’ll go in and let you know. Immediately, immediately!”
After saying that, without waiting for Du Jie to say anything, he ran into the big tent. Du Jie looked at Er Dezi with some funny eyes.
Er Dezi's real name was Wang Deyong, and his father was a fireman. Later, after Wang Deyong was born, he followed his father in the camp. Du Jie was ten years old at the time, and these two children were the only ones in the camp, and they looked half a head shorter than him.
Wang Deyong and Du Jie were not polite and directly recognized their younger brother.
Later, Wang Deyong became Du Jie's guard. As Du Jie fought on the battlefield, Du Jie had a sudden impulse and wanted to join Wang Deyong, but Wang Deyong always refused. Du Jie had no choice but to let Wang Deyong call him a great hero from then on.
His name is Wang Deyong Erde.
Although the title was not fulfilled in the end, the title was retained.
Du Jie was thinking about it when he suddenly heard a quarrel in the big tent. The marshal seemed to be discussing something when he was promoted to the tent today. Something didn't go well, and his words were a little fierce.
Du Jie was curious about what was going on inside. As he was thinking about it, he suddenly heard a loud laugh from inside: "Where is Du Jie? Where is he? I thought you little brat had forgotten about you, Uncle Peng. It's been three years,
No faith at all."
Before he finished speaking, the door of the big tent was rolled up high, and about ten people walked out from it. Everyone's face was beaming with joy. Du Jie recognized almost all of them at first sight. The one in the middle had a face like a crown jade, wearing a big cloak, with elegant aptitude and appearance.
Beautiful. It is none other than Peng Xianzuo, the current Marshal of the Northwest Army.
When Du Jie saw Marshal Peng coming out to greet him, he hurriedly took two steps forward, lifted up his clothes and was about to kneel down. When Peng Xianzuo saw him, he grabbed his hand.
"You little brat, you still know how to come to the northwest. I thought you had forgotten that your uncle is here. Let me see, well, it seems that the Central Plains is raising people. After three years in the Central Plains, it is no longer the same as before.
He's a rough guy. With this look, you don't have to worry about finding a handsome wife."
After hearing this, all the generals burst out laughing, and Du Jie's face suddenly turned red.
Fortunately, Marshal Peng did not continue. He calmed down his expression and said to the group of people who followed him: "Everyone knows this guy, right? He is the grandson of the old Marshal and the former pioneer of our Northwest Army. But now,
He also has an identity."
After saying this, he glanced at everyone, and his eyes finally fell on the last few people on the left.
"This is Duke Wu An, who is personally consecrated by the Holy Emperor. Everyone, you must be polite when meeting the Duke."
After hearing this, everyone's faces were shocked at first, and then showed ecstasy. Only the last three people on the left looked a little unnatural in their eyes.
Du Jie's mind was quick, and when he saw Marshal Peng's eyes, he hurriedly said to the generals: "Uncles and brothers, don't be ashamed of me. Don't move. If any of you want to kneel down, I will kowtow to you first."
After hearing this, everyone laughed again
When Du Jie saw the last three people he had never seen before, he thought to himself that these were the three generals who came from Shujun City as mentioned by the big head. He thought about it and asked Peng Xianzuo with a smile.
"Marshal Peng, these three look very unfamiliar to each other. Why don't you introduce me to your nephew?"
Peng Xianzuo looked at the three of them and made a confused expression: "Look at me, these three are the three generals who have recently arrived in the northwest. They have been serving in the imperial capital not long ago."
Du Jie was slightly startled, this was a little different from what Big Brain said, but Du Jie changed his mind and asked again: "Were you still in the imperial capital before? The three generals were still in the imperial capital before, so what happened to the three generals who conferred the title of Duke Wu'an on me?"
Do you know?"
The three people on the left looked at each other, and the leader replied with a smile: "Mr. Wu An was consecrated by the Holy One, so he naturally knows it."
"Since you know..." Du Jie suddenly changed the topic and his face darkened, "Since you know, why don't you kneel down when you see the Duke? Are you also a marshal of the army?"
"This..." When the three people heard that Du Jie asked them to kneel down, their expressions suddenly changed. The three people looked at each other and knelt on the ground with gritted teeth.
"I have met Mr. Wu An."
Du Jie nodded: "The three of you are in armor, so there is no need to be polite. Get up."
Someone next to them burst out laughing. The three people saw Du Jie teasing them like this. Their faces were livid. The leader turned his eyes and gave Du Jie a fist.
"Mr. Wu An is not in the Central Plains. Why did he return to the northwest?"
Du Jie looked at Peng Xianzuo and saw that although he looked unhappy, he didn't say anything. Du Jie said understandingly.
"What's your surname, this general?"
The man said politely: "My surname is Niu, and my double name is Yuanzheng. Niu Yuanzheng."
Du Jie said: "General Niu? You came to the northwest to join the army, or you have a life on your hands."
"I am not coming to the northwest to join the camp if I have my life on my side."
"What is that order? Tell it and I will listen."
"This..." Niu Yuanzheng was stunned: "Our orders have nothing to do with Mr. Wu An, so I apologize for the inconvenience of informing you."
Du Jie nodded after hearing this and smiled at Niu Yuanzheng: "Your order has nothing to do with me, so I can't tell you. General Niu would like to ask about my order?"
Niu Yuanzheng looked embarrassed and knew that he had said the wrong thing.
Du Jie was not going to let him go, and continued: "Even if I tell you, would you dare to listen? General Niu?"
After hearing this, Niu Yuanzheng immediately knelt on the ground: "Mr. Wu An makes atonement."
"Marshal Peng, General Niu is suspected of spying on military intelligence. This is a serious crime in this dynasty!"
Marshal Peng smiled slightly, and just as he was about to speak, a hearty laugh came from the tent: "Haha, Mr. Wu An is well and well!"
Before he finished speaking, a Confucian scholar wearing a crane cloak walked out of the tent. The Confucian scholar had a very majestic appearance. Du Jie was stunned when he saw it, and said unconsciously: "Master, how come you have arrived in the northwest? I heard before
You went to the northern grassland."
The person who came out turned out to be the current national advisor. This person was originally sent to the grassland by the emperor's order. Du Jie did not expect to meet him again in the northwest military camp today.
When the Imperial Master saw Du Jie, he raised his fist at him and said, "Mr. Wu An is always kind, but Kong Wujue is being polite."
Seeing Du Jie, he hurriedly returned the salute. The imperial master didn't wait for Du Jie to say anything, and then said: "These three people are now under the emperor's orders. Let's record the charges for now. When I return to the imperial capital, I will report it to the emperor and ask for his blessing."
The law punishes sin.”
After the Imperial Preceptor said this, Du Jie naturally had no way to embarrass them any more. Marshal Peng was a little surprised to see that Du Jie and the Imperial Preceptor actually knew each other. However, he also knew that this was not the place to talk. After the small episode, he invited everyone back to the university.
The imperial master and Du Jie were both polite and took their seats as Peng Xian entered the tent from the left.
The Imperial Master spoke first: "I was thinking that Duke Wu An would come to the northwest military camp soon, but I didn't expect to meet him here by such a coincidence."
Du Jie was also a little surprised: "I heard that the imperial master left the imperial capital and went to the grassland one day before us. Why are we in the northwest now? Did something happen?"
The Imperial Guard looked at Marshal Peng and said with a wry smile: "My trip to the grassland did not go well. The people on the grassland saw through my plan of alienation. Now I am using the excuse of disrupting the order of the grassland. Now I am quickly gathering our troops and preparing
Will be held soon
The troops marched south. On the way back, I consulted with the marshal guarding the north, and he sent someone to report to the imperial capital. I turned to the northwest and came to borrow troops from Marshal Peng. If the Tatar army breaks through the defense line, the vast territory in the north will never have peace.
."
Du Jie originally thought that what Big Brain was saying was nonsense, but he didn't expect to receive confirmation from the Imperial Advisor. He was shocked and said: "What? The Tatars are planning to invade our country? Is this news true?"
Peng Xianzuo nodded: "Marshal Wu, who is guarding the north, wrote personally. According to their outpost observations, the grassland has begun to prepare dry food for horses, and the troops of various ministries are also being mobilized urgently."
"This..." Du Jie frowned and was speechless after hearing this.
The Tatars in the north are much more difficult to deal with than the Xianbei in the northwest. The Tatars have a vast territory. After decades of recuperation, God knows how many soldiers and horses they have at this time. Moreover, the Tatar army kills people like crazy. Every time they capture a city, they will definitely be defeated.
Massacre the city.
The National Preceptor took over the words: "So I rushed to the northwest camp overnight and wanted to ask Marshal Peng to mobilize troops to help, but..."
Du Jie knew what the national adviser was going to say. It was impossible for Peng Xianzuo to mobilize troops to the north. The 150,000 troops and horses in the northwest must not be moved. If the troops and horses were moved now, the northwest border defense would be empty and the foreigners would counterattack. He would be responsible.
It is too big and no one can bear it. Now the defense line of 150,000 people is already a bit tight. If only a few thousand people are transferred there, it will not help at all.
Seeing that everyone was silent, the Imperial Master changed the subject and asked, "How is Duke Wu An's errand going? Is there anything I can do to help?"
Du Jie smiled bitterly: "I just arrived in the northwest recently and stayed in Yongzhou City for one night. I didn't dare to delay and rushed to the military camp. The errands assigned by the emperor are all clueless."
The Imperial Master nodded: "If you need anything, just ask. Mr. Wu An came to the camp alone? My nephew is still in Yongzhou City at this time?"
"Lao Liu arrived a while ago, but he also left Yongzhou today."
"Oh? Where did you go?"
Du Jie originally blurted out his words, but when he saw the Imperial Master's reaction was slightly urgent, he was a little surprised.
"He and his second senior brother went to Bulao Mountain. Some time ago, there was a vendetta in Burao Mountain. They went to see if they found anything."
